One of a series of board-style picture books made for very young children, this title introduces vehicles at the simplest level — the basic idea of what they are and what they look like.
The format is the point. Every page is built to fold, and each position shows the child something different: open it out and you get one set of information, fold it back and another appears in its place. That small mechanical action gives the child something to do with their hands rather than only something to look at, which is what holds the attention of children at this age.
The publisher's description notes that text is carried in Sinhala, Tamil and English, so the same pages can be used in any of the three languages — useful at home where more than one language is spoken, and in preschool settings.
Credited to Dolphine Press and published in Colombo by M. D. Gunasena & Co. (Pvt) Ltd, a long-established Sri Lankan publisher and bookseller working in Sinhala and English. It suits children at the stage of naming things and pointing at pictures, and adults looking for a first book about vehicles that is more than a flat page of drawings.
